In this video we are going to learn how read analog inputs using the Raspberry Pi Pico and build a circuit to include a potentiometer. With this we will be able to adjust and read voltages across the range from 0 to 3.3 volts. To accomplish this, we will use the Analog to Digital Converter built right into our microcontroller.
